Abstract
A medical kinematic analysis apparatuses includes a tracking point coordinate acquiring unit to generate coordinate time series data representing a coordinate of a tracking point on a heart from the time series image data, a motion information acquiring unit to generate time series motion information of the tracking point from the coordinate time series data, a first motion component computation unit to compute a motion component of a cardiac systole/diastolic direction from the time series motion information, and a second motion component computation unit to compute a motion component of a direction different from the cardiac systole/diastolic direction from the time series motion information.
